Mods, if i am posting this in the wrong section, please feel free to move it, or let me know and i will move it.


New, unprimed 300WM RWS brass:

I have been looking lately for some good .300wm brass. I have come to the conclusion after doing a lot of reading that my best bet would be to bite the bullet so to speak and get some RWS brass. The best prices that i can find are in bulk. I have found one online retailer that sells 50/100 cases at a time but the price is absolute robbery. What i have considered is to buy 1,000 RWS cases and split the cost with the other hide members that are in need or want some really good brass. I am interested in 200 pieces for myself.

Is anyone interested in getting in on a "group buy" or does anyone want some great brass? The price that i kept seeing on the last orders of this brass was $1.25 per case shipped. Does everyone think that is a fair price? If anyone is interested just let me know. What i would do is make the initial purchase with my own funds, (IF and ONLY IF i get enough people that want brass), then once i have received the brass, i would sell it off in 100 count quantities. Again, $1.25 per case if that sounds fare. Seriously guys, if thats too high, speak up, if its too low, let me know that too. I just need to make sure that i make enough to cover shipping in flat rate boxes, i'm not trying to turn a profit on this thing. I do not know yet what this is going to cost for it to be shipped to me. But if i go upside down on it, i will just eat it out of pocket.

I would prefer to keep it in 100 case lots to each person, but if someone needs/ wants a smaller lot i can brake it up. I will either keep the extra for myself, or post it on the PAY IT FORWARD post for someone in need.

Let me know what you guys think. Feel free to ask questions publicly or in PM, doesnt bother me either way.

Well JC, looks like its just the two of us. I will be contacting the distribution company on Monday to get a better idea of shipping, and total cost. Once that is done I will come up with a more accurate price per 100. I just have to make sure I cover my gas, and shipping charges from them and out to whoever wants brass. Beyond that, I'm not looking to make a proffit. I will continue to post updates. If I can't get enough people interested im not going to make the purchase of almost $800 before shipping. I just can't swing that much on empty brass sitting around unspoken for. I will be in touch when I find out more. Thank you for your interest.

Sorry everyone, i posted this on the 11th i believe. I should have updated it here as well but didnt because i wasnt getting anymore responses for a while.

Guys, I just got off the phone with DRT and wanted to update everyone. It would be in everyone's best interest to contact them directly. They DO take orders smaller than 1,000 rds and the price per case is the same. You can't beat it!! It also saved me the hassle of sending everyone flat rate boxes, and now u will get it faster too bc I won't have to sit in the living room counting out brass and filling boxes. I am removing myself from this as I am no longer interested, now that I know we can get smaller quantities. They don't have much left, less than 1000 rds from what I was told. She is going to have to go count it to get a better idea of how much is left. Get it while yet still have some! My order is placed and shipping out to me tomorrow!
Best of luck!


Just to update everyone, I also posted this in the Snipers Hide Group Buy section after a few days. Others have stated that they purchased the last of the brass that DRT had in stock. Sorry we couldnt work anything out. I didnt get responses fast enough and couldnt wait any longer to get my brass.
Hope this doesnt inconvenience anyone. But still give DRT a call and see when they will get more in.

No worries 19D. It kind of fell off my radar as my shooting has slowed up this past month with work and all. I'm still on 40 Hornady reloaded cases that might have one or two left in them and have another box of 50 new cases. Figured if the opportunity was out there I'd hop on it but again no worries. Do you think you could PM some contact details for the guys you contacted when you get a chance though? Thanks.
